The hard drive on my Pismo seems to have been fried. It's three-month old an IBM Travelstar 30GB drive that I installed myself. I was running 10.1.3 and had just installed some driver software for a VST expansion bay Zip 100 drive. When I went to restart after installation, the computer could not find the hard drive. Disk Warrior and Norton both failed to see it as well. The only way the drive even shows up is on the disk initialization utility, which is ready to let me initialize it, but not mount it.
Does anyone have any creative ideas? Does anyone have any experience with one of these disk recovery places? I really need the data on the drive... I've been travelling and as such haven't been backing up my recent work. :( Thanks, --Keith Potter -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
